    I think Gazidis went a step further than he needed to in a sense. Forget about exciting us....just do whatever is needed to bring in genuine quality worthy of the colours. Eventually, that will garner the happiness of all!
    We have an FA Cup for our excitement, they have in their mind done enough to justify the 3% rise.

    The club was buzzing with anticipation last summer after all that big talk. We almost fucked it up but finally delivered on deadline day. The Ozil boost was a massive boost to the club mentally. Come January, when we were flagging, we got this sort of message from the boss and he delivered Kallstrom! It's worrying when he talks like this, especially when you consider the last window. It draining and sucks the life away from the momentum we built in the summer.

    If '2 or 3 players' means 2 or 3 quality additions, on top of the numbers we have right now, then I don't think that's too far off what we need. But if we're talking about 2 or 3 players coming in after we've seen 3 or 4 players leave, then that's not even close to enough.

    How can the money not be there FFS! If that is the case, we have a bunch of fucking retards running our club. We have had 16 years of CL football which brings a shit load of cash.

    Sagna, Fabianski, Vermaelen and Bendy are all gone this summer so we'll need replacements on top of top quality in areas we're already lacking. 2-3 signings won't cut if we lose these players.

    The policy has always been 2-3 players regardless of who leaves, not as well as, strange way to see things if you ask me.

    We have other options in addition to signing new players. I hope to see Joel Campbell here for a start. Gnabry and Zelalem may play bigger roles, I hope so anyway. Add 2-3 seriously top quality signings to the squad we have and we're fine. What we don't want to see is 5-6 average or shit players coming in, much better to get 2-3 players who can make a difference. We need a striker a defensive midfielder and defender to cover if TV is off, understandable as he can get a game somewhere else. I guess if the greedy scumbag shit bastard Sagna goes too then we may be looking at 3-4 signings.

    And we're arguably a CB short already, even before anyone leaves! Surely even we wouldn't go into a season with just 1 keeper, 1 RB and 2 CBs would we? Would we?! Oh God, we would, wouldn't we!

    Seriously, I would make keeping him one of our top priorities before the season ends - he's been as good as anyone when called upon this year, and I can't think of anyone better we could get who would be happy fighting it out with Szczesny. Just need to make sure he gets more games next year...
